Coney Island

We went to Coney Island on Monday with my sister, Gavin, Avery, and my mom. We could have not asked for a more perfect day! Even though the water was cold in the begininning of the day, you got used to it quickly. Olivia has gone from HATING the water. She would literally hold onto me for dear life whenever we were near any type of water. To now all of a sudden in the past 2 weeks LOVING it. I could not get her to leave on Monday! Amy and the kids left around 3:45 and I was planning on leaving shortly after that, but she was having so much fun we stayed until 6! We decided next year we will get a pass for Coney Island. Its sooo close to our house (5 minutes from our exit) and they have rides that she can ride. The rides she is able to ride are about the same as Kings Island's and they have a merry go round, which hopefully she'll still enjoy next year. So, needless to say I am happy she has adapted to the water! These pics are backwards, but you get the idea!

This is at the end of the day, it took her a while to actually sit in the water, but once she did she liked it!







Aunt Mamy bought her an innertube. At first she didn't want to get the innertube wet, but she eventually did!
I think this is so funny! She was so worried about her inner tube getting in the water!

Looks like a lot of fun. We have never been to the pool but plan on going next week sometime.

What is Coney Island?? It's not the one I am thinking of. It looks like fun, whatever it is!

Olivia looks so much like Matt in the last picture! She is growing up so fast!

Coney Island is an amusement park/pool. The pool is called Sunlite pool and is the largest free standing pool in the U.S. the Coney Island you're thinking of is in N.Y. with crazy circus type stuff....
